[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by The Red Admiral: [qb] Yeh, "Around the survivors a perimeter create" was quite poor, so much so that it was funny. Most the Yoda dialogue was spot on though. The Gungans were even more irritating than the Ewoks, mainly because of Jar Jar. Lose him, and it wouldn't have been so bad. The 'Big Boss' was a reasonable character. But in many ways, TPM tried to emulate the denouement of ROTJ. And it didn't work. Jar's Jar's line of 'How Rude' seems to have been picked up by 3PO. He says in the other movies more than once I think, along with his catchphrase of 'We're doomed.' I detest 'I've gotta bad feeling about this'. It's just lazy writing. [/qb][/QUOTE]Umm..in case you guys didn't realize, the Yoda line was *supposed* to be funny, and IMO it *was.* Dramaturgically speaking, it provides the audience with the needed relief after the prolonged tension of the arena battle. Such moments are in fact a necessary part of the "flow" of a film. Besides, one of the good things about this movie was Lucas having a fun time with the Yoda character. If you want to talk about comic relief that came at an inopportune time where it wasn't needed at all, look at the whole Threepio-gets-his-head-switched-with-a-battle-droid tangent. :rolleyes: And the "I have a bad feeling about this" is a line that Lucas includes in [i]every[/i] SW episode. It's a tradition, sort of his own little ritual when writing these things. I don't mind it. -[b]MMoM[/b] :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
